Cancellation Policy
There are few things I like better than escorting individuals
down the river to catch the fish of a lifetime. The rewards I experience
from river guiding are two fold. First, is assisting a fly-fisherman
and educating them about all facets of fly-fishing. Second, is
to supply them the best opportunity at a trophy fish while
providing a great and safe experience on the river. My
love for the Pere Marquette River started 15 years ago. I now
have the privilege to own and operate the Red Moose Lodge
and C.A. Guide Service. I could have never guessed I would be here
15 years ago. I have been coming up to the Baldwin area for 20+ years
and have a vast knowledge of the snowmobile/ motorcycle trails,
hunting (everything that walks or flies), and fishing for anything
that swims. Included with my knowledge of the Pere Marquette River,
I also have experience on the Muskegon, Manistee and White
rivers as well. Book a trip and let's spend some time on the water.
Thank You

at the end of the drawing in the Spring (it is a good season
and is three weeks long). After applying you will be notified
by March 15th if you were drawn for the first two
seasons (each is one week long).
After the above process, please contact us to reserve your

When booking a guided trip with C.A. Guide Service, a credit
card number (Visa or Mastercard) will be required to hold your
dates. If the need arises and you do have to cancel you trip,
it must be done one month prior to your reservation date to
assume no penalty. If the cancellation takes place after the
one month period but before the two week point, a $150.00 per
reserved day will be assessed. Lastly, if the trip is cancelled
within two weeks of the trip, you will be assessed the full
charge for all reserved days.
We realize that extenuating circumstances may arise. Although
we will be charging you with the above fees in the event of
a cancellation, we will also try to accommodate you by re-booking
the trip during a non-peak season time equally agreed upon.
There will be a limited time in which this trip must be booked
(normally a 3 month period).
If adverse weather conditions or river conditions should arise,
we will
contact you as soon as possible. We will also reschedule your
trip at a
time that is equally convenient. |
